TEMPE, Ariz. -- Three players from national finalist Washburn men's tennis were named ITA All-Americans on Tuesday morning by the organization. Tim Hammes and Vasek Schneider were each named ITA Singles All-Americans while Hammes also collected the award in doubles along with Matthew Earle.
To be named an ITA All-American, student-athletes must finish in the top-20 in singles and in the top-10 in doubles in the final ITA rankings of the season.
